Like in those animes and superhero comics... Who is your webcomic rival? Your arch enemy you must defect?
It can be a friendly rivalry too.

Who is your webcomic rival?

I guess the closest thing that I have to a rival is pretty much everyone on VUS. Basically in VUS all the participants make fun of each other and their comics/characters and whatnot. It's fairly friendly though, as rivalries go. I'm going to get those jerks!

No rivals!!! Although I do have a few people on Drunk Duck that I look up to and someday want to become! There are so many people that fit under this category though, it would take so long to list them all...

EVERYONE IN THE WORLD!
Seriously though, I've never been the competitive type, so I don't get into rivalries or anything like that.

Aw man... You guys are no fun. I joke that my main two comics are rivals against each other.. that might be kinda lame though.
I hope that some of the people I know IRL will get back into making their comics so we can have fun with friendly rivalries.

I think Shinuzero and I started a friendly rivalry not too long ago.
Oh, and if Shinu is reading this, It's been brought.

When i first started out i felt a bit of antagonism coming from some other yuri artists, but i never really felt a rivalry to them (though one got pretty vocal when i got featured and she hadn't which was funny)
I still don't think it's the friendliest genre as far as peers go :0

I use comparisons to others as a way to belittle my own efforts, so I have lots of perceived rivals, but no real ones. lol!
However, there are those prejudiced against photocomics, especially some fixated on the using of action figures. So I guess I'm in rivalry against that prejudice and the ignorance behind it.

I don't think I've amassed enough presence on here to acquire a rival. That sounds like a good thing to have though. A rival can push you into becoming better.
Then again, these sorts of things kind of happen organically. You can't really post an ad on Craigslist looking for an artistic rival.

Alright, lets see...
Am I only allowed one?
Wordweaver_three is a long running sparing partner, but now red baron is throwing down the gauntlet!
Nickguy, I will bring the shizzle to your hizzle!
Amanda, you want an enemy? Prepare to face the wrath of the VAST!
So many enemies! So little time!

Not exactly a rival (our comics are in different genres with very different art styles!) but there have been several periods where JustNoPoint's The Devon Legacy Prologue and my comic Shades have had spookily similar things taking place at roughly the same time ...
The rivalry is on the basis of who can get the next "similar event" to happen first!
(Peeking at each other's script in strictly against the rules!) ;-)

Meh, I don't think I have a rival, neither do I think I'm worthy of one or want one. I just do my comic to tell a story I've been meaning to, improve my art, and have fun.
Yay for peace! *goes to hug some trees* XD

Huh. I like this topic!
Let's see.. Maybe traume von magpie? We've joked about having a comic death match or something to that effect before. I'm totally blown away by that one. Wish i had that kind of game!
Me and Harkovast are both hell-bent on webcomic supremacy, so I'm gonna go with him too, even though our comics are utterly different. Let's start a rivalry! Any other takers are welcome, too.
